Abstract

Abstract The maximal evolution speed of any quantum system can be expressed by the quantum speed limit time. In this paper, we consider a model in which the system has a correlation with the environment. The influence of the initial correlation between the system and environment on the quantum speed limit is investigated. It is shown that the appearance of non-Markovianity effects causes the speedup of quantum evolution. Moreover, we demonstrate the dependence of quantum dynamical speedup on the quantum coherence of the correlated initial state.

Quantum dynamical speedup in a nonequilibrium environment

Xiang-Ji Cai, Yujun Zheng

We theoretically study the dynamical speedup of a quantum system in a nonequilibrium environment. Based on the trace distance, we derive the generalized Margolus-Levitin and Mandelstam-Tamm types of bounds on the quantum speed limit time of a quantum system evolving from an arbitrary initial state. We demonstrate that the mechanism for the speedup of dynamical evolution is closely associated with both the energy of the system and exchange of information between the system and its environment. It is shown that the nonequilibrium feature of the environment can speed up the quantum evolution in both Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics regions. We emphasize that the non-Markovian effect of the system dynamics is neither necessary nor sufficient to speed up the quantum evolution in a nonequilibrium environment.

Tightening of quantum speed limit bound and tracing back information under non-Markovian dynamics

Natasha Awasthi, Dheeraj Kumar Joshi

Abstract Quantum theory sets a fundamental bound for the minimal time evolution between initial and final state of a system . This bound is called quantum speed limit time , which is used to quantify the speed of evolution of a quantum system. If quantum speed limit time decreases, the evolution keeps on increasing. In this paper, we study the effect of quantum speed limit time in terms of correlated and uncorrelated noise channels like amplitude damping and phase damping channel. We use maximally entangled mixed state as our initial state. We observe the behavior of quantum speed limit time under Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics. We prove that for the special class of our inital state and for the dynamical evolution of a system, there exist a link between quantum speed limit time and non-Markovianity. However, an interesting results were also observed regarding the tightness of bound in Markovian region. Our results shed light on the information back-flow between system and environment in terms of quantum evolution which is useful as a resource in quantum information processing task.

Variation of quantum speed limit under Markovian and non-Markovian noisy environment

Natasha Awasthi, Dheeraj Kumar Joshi, Surbhi Sachdev

Abstract The time required for a given quantum system to evolve is known as the quantum speed limit (QSL), which can be used to characterize the speed of evolution of a quantum system. We study QSL time for Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics. Investigating the effect of QSL under non-unitary evolution is of fundamental interest. In this work, we derive QSL time for maximally entangled state and apply its results under various noise channels. We discuss measure of QSL, how correlations affect the rate of QSL. Further, we carried an investigation on connection between non-Markovianity and QSL. We show that the non Markovian evolution can speed up quantum evolution, therefore lead to smaller QSL time. We have established the connections between correlated channels, information loss and non-Markovianity. This theory may suggest some further connections to retrieve back information from surrounding and preserves decoherence.

Quantum speed limit time in the presence of disturbance

Soroush Haseli, S. Salimi, Hazhir Dolatkhah +1 more

Quantum theory sets a bound on the minimal time it takes for a system to evolve from initial state to target state. This bound is called the quantum speed limit (QSL) time. The quantum speed limit time is used to quantify the maximal speed of the quantum evolution. The quantum evolution will be faster if the quantum speed limit time decreases. In this work, we study the quantum speed limit time for an open quantum system in the presence of disturbance in an environment. We use the model which is provided by Ban [Phys. Rev. A 99, 012116 (2019)]. In this model, two quantum systems [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] interact with environment sequentially. At first, quantum system [Formula: see text] interacts with the environment [Formula: see text] as an auxiliary system, then quantum system [Formula: see text] starts its interaction with disturbed environment immediately. In this work, we consider the dephasing coupling with two types of environment that has different spectral density: Ohmic and Lorentzian. We observe that, non-Markovian effects will appear in the dynamics of the second quantum system [Formula: see text] due to the interaction of the first quantum system [Formula: see text] with the environment. Given the fact that the quantum speed limit time reduces due to the non-Markovian feature of quantum evolution, we show that disturbance effects will reduce the quantum speed limit time for the dynamics of the second quantum system [Formula: see text].

There is no general connection between the quantum speed limit and non-Markovianity

J Teittinen, H Lyyra, Sabrina Maniscalco

Abstract The quantum speed limit (QSL) sets a bound on the minimum time required for a quantum system to evolve between two states. For open quantum systems this quantity depends on the dynamical map describing the time evolution in presence of the environment, on the evolution time τ, and on the initial state of the system. We consider a general single qubit open dynamics and show that there is no simple relationship between memory effects and the tightness of the QSL bound. We prove that only for specific classes of dynamical evolutions and initial states, there exists a link between non-Markovianity and the QSL. Our results shed light on the connection between information back-flow between system and environment and the speed of quantum evolution.

Quantum speed limit for arbitrary initial states

Yingjie Zhang, Wei Han, Yun‐Jie Xia +2 more

The minimal time a system needs to evolve from an initial state to its one orthogonal state is defined as the quantum speed limit time, which can be used to characterize the maximal speed of evolution of a quantum system. This is a fundamental question of quantum physics. We investigate the generic bound on the minimal evolution time of the open dynamical quantum system. This quantum speed limit time is applicable to both mixed and pure initial states. We then apply this result to the damped Jaynes-Cummings model and the Ohimc-like dephasing model starting from a general time-evolution state. The bound of this time-dependent state at any point in time can be found. For the damped Jaynes-Cummings model, when the system starts from the excited state, the corresponding bound first decreases and then increases in the Markovian dynamics. While in the non-Markovian regime, the speed limit time shows an interesting periodic oscillatory behavior. For the case of Ohimc-like dephasing model, this bound would be gradually trapped to a fixed value. In addition, the roles of the relativistic effects on the speed limit time for the observer in non-inertial frames are discussed.
